Brazil 🇧🇷: On Monday (21), Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered former President Jair Bolsonaro's legal team to respond within 24 hours regarding a possible violation of a court order prohibiting him from using social media, either directly or indirectly. The minister stated that Bolsonaro’s remarks in Congress appeared intended for reproduction on social media. If Moraes determines that the order was violated, Bolsonaro could face arrest. "I didn't steal from the public coffers, I didn't embezzle public funds, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't traffic anyone. This is a symbol of the greatest humiliation in our country. An innocent person. It's cowardly what they are doing to a former president of the Republic. We will stand against everything and everyone. What matters to me is God's law," said Bolsonaro.
